Tips on installing XO
-
Hi @john-c,
I did:# systemctl enable orchestra.service orchestra.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install. Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable orchestraThen I rebooted the system and checked the service:
# systemctl status orchestra.service β orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/orchestra; generated) Active: active (exited) since Wed 2024-03-27 08:10:55 EDT; 1min 11s ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 514 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/orchestra start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CPU: 30ms Mar 27 08:10:49 XO systemd[1]: Starting orchestra.service - LSB: forever-service startup script for orchestra...

@jasonnix I think it's time you try and use an installation script. You're clearly having issues that are specific to you.
I'd just give up on this "I don't trust scripts" thing you have if you can't figure this process out, which is really straight-forwards.
-
You may want to try removing the service and then installing it again.

Hi @Danp,
How? -
@jasonnix Documentation for
forevercan be found at https://github.com/zapty/forever-service -
@Danp, according to the XO documentation I ran the following command:
$ sudo forever-service install orchestra -r "Current_UserName" -s dist/cli.mjsIs this wrong?
-
@jasonnix AFAIK it is correct. I've never personally used
forever, so my advice is only based on what you've posted to this thread.This part looked suspicious, so that is why I recommended removal / recreation --
# forever start dist/cli.mjs warn: --minUptime not set. Defaulting to: 1000ms warn: --spinSleepTime not set. Your script will exit if it does not stay up for at least 1000ms info: Forever processing file: dist/cli.mjs (node:742838) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'padLevels' of module exports inside circular dependency (Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created) (node:742838) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'padLevels' of module exports inside circular dependency (node:742838) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'padLevels' of module exports inside circular dependency -
Hi @Danp,
I did:# sudo forever-service delete orchestra forever-service version 0.5.11 Platform - Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) Service orchestra deleted successfullyWhat is the next step? Should I run
$ sudo forever-service install orchestra -r "Current_UserName" -s dist/cli.mjscommand again? -
These are the steps shown in the documentation --
yarn global add forever yarn global add forever-service # Be sure to edit the path below to where your install is located! cd /home/username/xen-orchestra/packages/xo-server/ # Change the username below to the user owning XO forever-service install orchestra -r username -s dist/cli.mjsI don't see where you previously ran the line to install
forever-service. Is that no longer needed?
To answer your question, Yes, you would rerun that command after switching to the correct directory as shown above.

I hope that was more of a rhetorical question, because your best option is to simply spin up a new VM and start over. There are other options as well --
- Revert to an existing snapshot that you took prior to all of the above
- Remove the
/home/username/xen-orchestradirectory and hope for the best
-
@Danp, Yes. I read.
These were questions that I had asked before and no one answered:
1- Should I run the commands as root or sudo?2- Which directory is suitable to clone XO? I want to clone it in the /usr/local/src directory and this requires administrative access.
-
Hello,
I cloned the repository Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer. I then tried to install it using thebash xo_install.shcommand, but I got the following error:Cloning into 'xen-orchestra'... remote: Enumerating objects: 128131, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (4123/4123), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1937/1937), done. error: RPC failed; curl 92 HTTP/2 stream 5 was not closed cleanly: CANCEL (err 8) error: 611 bytes of body are still expected fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sideband packet fatal: early EOF fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output xo_install.sh: line 50: cd: /opt/xen-orchestra: No such file or directory yarn install v1.22.22 info No lockfile found.

@jasonnix you should report 3rd party script issues where they are built, eg https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer
The community forums are meant to deal with the documented way to install XO
-
@jasonnix Looks like you had an issue during the attempt to
git clonethe XO repository, which would explain why the directory was subsequently not found. I would recommend retrying the install using a fresh VM. -
Hi @Danp,
Thank you so much for your reply.
I installed a new VM and cloned the repository manually. It has been at this stage for hours:# yarn yarn install v1.22.22 [1/5] Validating package.json... [2/5] Resolving packages...

@jasonnix There are several instance in this thread where the errors you encounter appear to be network related. Do you regularly have issues with your internet connection? Are you still using Debian 12 as the base OS?

@jasonnix You didn't answer my question about your internet connection, so I'm going to assume the answer is "yes".
Also, you should reread the documentation on adding the forever service because that isn't the proper method. Seems like we went over this several months ago.
-
Hi @Danp,
I followed the documentation and as you can see I have installed theforeverservice.
